Christ or Caesar?
THEY call it in Germany a revolution; and boast that it
. has occurred with little violence. It is then, this acces
sion of Adolf Hitler, not merely a new chancellor but & new
government. This revolution does not end with transform
in?; the political machine. It is proceeding now to purge the
intellectual, religious and social culture of the reich of every
vestige of thought or influence not, regarded as loyal to the
new regime. The scourge of the Semites is partly mere dra
matics; and in part atavism, a resurgence of primitive racial
exclusiveness and solidarity.
Hitler calls the process the Purification of Germany and
the Unifying of Germany. Like the Russian dictators he
' plays on popular emotions until patriotism becomes a new
and glowing religion. Like most new faiths it overflows with
passion and demands absolute surrender to the new concep
" tion of the state and its administrators.
The church of Germany, catholic and protestant, is mak
ing surrender. The protestant bodies have announced their
achievement of "complete unity" by which a single protestant
state church will be erected to the support of the new nation.
Late reports add that the German catholic, group will shortly
declare its solidarity with the state. Dr. Kappler, president
of the evangelical church league says :
"Work will begin immediately on the creation of a new
church constitution. Protestantism therewith begins a new era.
The German church is determined to hear the call of the hour
and give the united people a united church."
The church thus becomes a tool of a renascent national
ism. Instead of a great, free agent looking to the salvation
of men and the redemption of society by virtue of the vivid
person and teaching of Christ, the church becomes a foot
man in the chariot of the state, which in many respects is
thoroughly pagan. I
This surrender of the free church to the new religion
of nationalism is not confined to Germany. Other nations
witness the same capitulation. In this country the attempt
of individual preachers to proclaim a gospel with the zeal
and the fearlessness of Savonarola brings swiftly the crush
ing pressure that is as effective as a jail sentence. The
church as a body seems almost impotent in the sway of forces
economic and political which grip this country and the
world. The American church is generally quite as ready as
that of any country to grant its apostolic blessings on the
adventures of the state in peace and war.
Oswald Spengler, prophet of gloom, said many years
ago: "Wei shall not make another Goethe, but we shall make
another Caesar' Correct. The age of the Caesars is upon
us; and it may culminate in the age of the Neros. In such a
time when the voices of liberty are everywhere being stilled
and the ideal pf human freedom which has led men on since
the days of Lexington is passing into eclipse, the world needs
the free church, with its fidelity to permanent standards of
truth, its sense of timelessness, its conscience, its prophetic
message, needs sucn a enure n to guiae ana inspire peoples
! who are now suffocating in their own bewilderment.
Banks and the Philosophers
DURING the period of his incarceration L. A. Banks, now
on trial at Eugene for the crime of murder, is said to
have been reading the Greek philosophers, Plato and Aris
. totle and the Socratic dialogues. Entertaining as he does the
conviction of righteousness under persecution, he would find
Yt4 only solace from perusal of such works, but self -justification.
By merely putting himself in the role of Socrates or
Christ he builds up the delusion of martyrdom. While it may
satisfy himself, the parallel hardly seems accurate.
'' If one were to seek in ancient literature the more cor
rect analogy of the situation in Jackson county which cul
minated In the deed for which Banks is being tried, he
should, turn rather to Greek tragedy. In the works of Soph-
octes and Aeschylus might be seen the Medf ord counterpart.
For in Medford Fate moved as inexorably, as remorseless
ly as ever it did in those Greek dramas. And the mainspring
of the action often was unthinking Hate.
' : Instead of comparing himself with Socrates, Banks
might find his prototype in Creon, the leading character in
Antigone". With the same resistance to reason and sound
judgment which Banks exhibited, Creon drove Antigone to
death, his own son, lover of Antigone to suicide, and his
own wife to self-destruction. But Creon claimed no halo in
stead remorse and despair seized him, and these were his
closing words:
" i I care not, let It come;
1 1 Let come the best ot all my fate,
- K The best, the last, that ends my; days:
What car IT Com what will .
' .? That I no- more may see another day
'L - O lead me hence, tmprbfltable; who the
Unwittingly ha vo slain. .. for all things
j Are crooked that I handle, and a fate
" h" Intolerable upon my life hath leapt.

BEATRICE
BURTON
, X CHAPTER JUUTJIi
Mary Faith said to herself that k
wouldn't break her heart if Clair
never did com horn. It would suit
her down to the ground if she never
had to see Claire's dazzling smile
and restless bin eyes again. AH
summer ah ' had been dreading
Claire's return and the return of all
the things that Claire stood for. The
card games and th cocktails and
th promiscuous kissing that went
on in th flat above Haltnorta Park
"the unclean antics of grown-up
children," a a brilliant playwright
had called such entertainments.
Two nights later Kim telephoned
at five o'clock to say that he wouldn't
bf home for dinner. ' Some men he
knew had asked him to go with them
to a clam bale at th Shore Club,
he explained.
"No women present," he added,
with a laugh.
"In that case, your jealous wife
will let you go," Mary Faith an
swered him cheerfully. "Hare a good
time, Kim." "
She was glad that he was going
to the Shore Club. It was fin for a
man to spend an evening with other
men occasionally to get their view
point on things.
And the Shore Quo. It meant
something for a man to be invited
there. It was a solid sort of institu
tion, where the oldest and best fami
lies in the city played golf and
danced and gave dinner-parties.
So Mary Faith, who had no social
ambitions of her own, was filled with
a sense of pride in Kim as she
turned away from the telephone that
afternoon. He was beginning to
know the right sort of people, to go
to the right sort of places, to be
liked and respected by Us business
friends.
It was a beautiful afternoon, sun
shiny and breezy. Mary Faith put
the baby into his perambulator and
started oS for a walk through the
park. The baby, pink and bright
eyed from his afternoon nap, sat up
against the pillows of his little cart
and played with a rubber rabbit that
Jean Bartlett had brought him.
It was cool and green under the
trees. Mary Faith spread a blanket
for him near her favorite bench and
sat watching him in great content
ment while she darned Kim's socks.
By the time she had finished them
and put them into her mending bag,
it was six o'clock and th factory
whistles were blowing in th dis
tance.
Time to start home," she said to
th baby. Time to go home and
find the baby's bottle."
Then she decided all at once that
she wouldn't go home for dinner.
She'd go back to th flat for the
bottle and then take the baby to Mrs. !
Puckett's. It would be nice to show
him to her friends.
Mr. McQintock was sitting on
the front steps, reading the evening
paper, when she came within sight
of the old red brick building with
its shutters and its bay trees and its
starched white curtains. Mrs. Puck
ett was standing in the doorway be
hind him and she cam hurrying
down the steps when she saw Mary
Faith. She took the baby out of the
perambulator, exclaiming over his
adorable littleness and his amazing
beauty.
"Look at those eyelashes, Mary
Faith! If they ain't yours to a Tf
he cried. "And look at his little
hands and his feet hii little velvet
feetl"
She horrified Mary Faith by gfv
g him n crust of bread to chew on
when they au went in to dinner.
She served their simple meals as beautifully as a trained waitress could
have served them.
"Pshaw, he can't eat it, Mary
Faith. He hasn't any teeth." she
said. And when Mary Faith
wouldn't let him have it, she went
upstairs and came back with an old
fashioned ivory teething ring.
"There I" the said to him. "That's
all your smart young mother wiQ let
you have. But your Aunt Puckett is
going to make you a Uttl muslin
bag full of raisins when you really
begin to cut your teeth."
"I brought up my two little sisters
after my mother died," she said to
Mary Faith, heaping her plate with
baked ham and potato salad and
fresh tomatoes in aspic jelly. "There
ain't much that I don't know about
raising babies. ... just remember
that, in case you ever need any help
with this precious mite!"
Mary Faith smSod at her happily.
She would never need help with the
baby. She was sure of that, she told
herself. And not until long after
ward did ah realize that she had
tucked Mrs. Puckett's words into
some pigeonhole of her mind that
night, to be taken out later and re
membered with relief and gratitude.
It was twilight when she started
home, and the baby was asleep on
his embroidered pillows. By the
time she reached the drug store near
her own corner, a familiar figure
emerged from the doorway Kim I
He stood there for a moment, and
then vanished around the corner.
But when she reached the corner, he
was not in sight There was no one
in sight, and there was no automo
bile, either. Nothing but a red tail
light that whisked out of sight at
the other end of the street a second
after she caught sight of it
"But that must have been Kim,'
she thought, "and that must have
been his car. What on earth was he
doing here?"
The wonder of the thing had bare
ly flicked her mind before it was
gone. It couldn't have been Kim,
she decided. Kim was at th Shore
Club, twenty miles away. Th man
she had seen had simply suggested
Kim to her because of his height
and his white suit
The flat was dark and silent whe
she opeaed the front door. She
switched on th lights as she walked
in with th sleeping Jbaby in het
arms. No, Kim had not been here.
There were no cigarette stubs fat the
ash-trays in th sitting room.
Mary Faith wheeled the baby's
bassinet into Mrs. FarrcITs bedroom,
the largest and coolest room in the
flat and then got into her own bed,
taking with her a library book called
A Philosopher Looks at Life."
She took a serious "high-brow"
book from the library every now and
then. She wanted to know about
things to be able to talk intelli
gently to educate herself.
"Kim's college-bred," she had
often told herself, "and Tm not He's
a lawyer and he'll keep on going up
in the world, and I must keep pace
with him. I mustn t let myself turn
into a mere housekeeper and
mother."
There would come a time, she
figured, when Kim and she would
have friends who were above th
Maldons and their set And when
that time came, she would be ready
for it She would be a wife that any
man could be proud of.
Hidden away on the top shelf of
the pantry she had a book entitled
"Etiquette," and even when she and
Kim were alone, she served their
simple meals as beautifully as a
trained waitress could have served
them.
"Some day," she often thought as
she went about" her work, "the Mc
Intraes are going to ask us to their
house for dinner, and well have to
ask them here. And I'm going to
know Just how to do everything cor
rectly." (Te Be CooH eii
